1. Heat the oil in saucepan over medium heat. Season the lamb shanks, then brown, turning occasionally. Remove the lamb. Add the onion and garlic, cook until onion is soft, but not browned.
2. Return lamb to pan. Stir in the herbs and chilli. Cook for 1 minute; then stir in stock and Val Verde Diced Italian Tomatoes. Bring to a simmer, cover and reduce heat.
3. Cook for 2.5 hours or until meat starts falling off the bone. Stir in chickpeas, cook uncovered for a further 30 minutes.
4. Carefully remove shanks from soup and remove meat from bone; shred, discarding bones, and return meat to soup and heat through.
Substitute lamb shanks for 700g boneless lamb shoulder, diced, if desired.
